How to Use the Document Module in Semsto

Accessing the Document Module
  1. Navigate to the Document Module:

    • Click on "Document" from the main side panel.

    Before managing your documents, it's advisable to first create a category and then add documents to it. Think of it as a simple folder management system that we use daily on our computers. So, let’s start by creating a category.
Adding a New Category
  1. Add a New Category

    • Click on the "Add Document Category" button.

  2. Fill in the Details

    • Document Type: Select the type of document (e.g., policy, report, etc.).

    • Allow Sharing: Choose if the document can be shared with others.

    • Allow Access to Other Employees: Decide if other employees can access this document.

    • Status: Set the status of the document to active or inactive.

  3. Save the Category

    • Click on the "Save" button to create your document category.

    Once you have created a category, several options become available to help you manage it:

Edit and Remove Buttons: Located at the top left corner of the category. These buttons allow you to make changes to the category details or delete the category entirely.

By using these features, you can efficiently manage your document categories, ensuring they are updated, shared, and accessible as needed.

Once the category is created, you can start uploading documents to it.
